Thermonuclear burn-up in deuterated methane
The thermonuclear burn-up of highly compressed deuterated methane CD is
considered in the spherical geometry. The minimal required values of the
burn-up parameter are determined for various
temperatures and densities . It is shown that thermonuclear burn-up
in becomes possible in practice if its initial density exceeds
. Burn-up in CDT methane
requires significantly ( 100 times) lower compressions. The developed
approach can be used in order to compute the critical burn-up parameters in an
arbitrary deuterium containing fuel
Scattering of Straight Cosmic Strings by Black Holes: Weak Field Approximation
The scattering of a straight, infinitely long string moving with velocity
by a black hole is considered. We analyze the weak-field case, where the impact
parameter () is large, and obtain exact solutions to the equations of
motion. As a result of scattering, the string is displaced in the direction
perpendicular to the velocity by an amount , where . The second
term dominates at low velocities . The late-time
solution is represented by a kink and anti-kink, propagating in opposite
directions at the speed of light, and leaving behind them the string in a new
``phase''. The solutions are applied to the problem of string capture, and are
compared to numerical results.Comment: 19 pages, 5 figure
New results in the deformed N=4 SYM theory
We investigate various perturbative properties of the deformed N=4 SYM
theory. We carry out a three-loops calculation of the chiral matter superfield
propagator and derive the condition on the couplings for maintaining finiteness
at this order. We compute the 2-, 3- and 4-point functions of composite
operators of dimension 2 at two loops. We identify all the scalar operators
(chiral and non-chiral) of bare dimension 4 with vanishing one-loop anomalous
dimension. We compute some 2- and 3-point functions of these operators at two
loops and argue that the observed finite corrections cannot be absorbed by a
finite renormalization of the operators.Comment: LaTeX, 16 pages, 1 figure; references added; typos corrected; final

Small deviations of iterated processes in space of trajectories
We derive logarithmic asymptotics of probabilities of small deviations for
iterated processes in the space of trajectories. We find conditions under which
these asymptotics coincide with those of processes generating iterated
processes. When these conditions fail the asymptotics are quite different
Stringy effect of the holographic correspondence for Dp-brane backgrounds
Based on the holographic conjecture for superstrings on Dp-brane backgrounds
and the dual (p+1)-dimensional gauge theory () given in
hep-th/0308024 and hep-th/0405203, we continue the study of superstring
amplitudes including string higher modes (). We give a prediction to
the two-point functions of operators with large R-charge J. The effect of
stringy modes do not appear as the form of anomalous dimensions except for p=3.
Instead, it gives non-trivial correction to the two-point functions for
supergravity modes. For p=4, the scalar two-point functions for any n behave
like free fields of the effective dimension d_{eff}=6 in the infra-red limit.Comment: 23 pages, typos correcte
Accretion of non-minimally coupled generalized Chaplygin gas into black holes
The mass evolution of Schwarzschild black holes by the absorption of scalar
fields is investigated in the scenario of the generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG).
The GCG works as a unification picture of dark matter plus dark energy that
naturally accelerates the expansion of the Universe. Through elements of the
quasi-stationary approach, we consider the mass evolution of Schwarzschild
black holes accreted by non-minimally coupled cosmological scalar fields
reproducing the dynamics of the GCG. As a scalar field non-minimally coupled to
the metrics, such an exotic content has been interconnected with accreting
black holes. The black hole increasing masses by the absorption of the gas
reflects some consistence of the accretion mechanism with the hypothesis of the
primordial origin of supermassive black holes. Our results effectively show
that the non-minimal coupling with the GCG dark sector accelerates the
increasing of black hole masses. Meanwhile some exotic features can also be
depicted for specific ranges of the non-minimal coupling in which the GCG
dynamics is substantially modified.Comment: 13 pages, 03 figure
